The Hot Springs star. (Hot Spings [Hot Springs], Dakota [Dakota Territory, i.e. S.D.]) 1886-189?, 1887-12-23
Both houses of congress adjourned
yesterday and will stand adjourned
until January 9Th, 1883.

A thousand thanks to President
Cleyeland for the bold, manly. and un-
equivocal avowal of his extreme free
trade purposes. And a thousand re-
bukes and defeats for the false, danger-
Gus, and destructive policy which he
thus frankly and unreservedly pro-
claims. The message deserves all the
glory of courage, all the praise Of
high public issue, all the condemnation
cf utter ruinous heresv. 1t is a SUR
prise in its method, and a still greater
surprise in its matter. 1t like
the sudden echoing boom of a great
gun signaling a crucial fight on UNI
expected ground. In its immediate
flash of light and in its broad bearings
it looms up as one Of the most momen-
tous political events since the war.
It plants the President and his party
squarely on free trade; it clarifies the
next Presidential battle as bv a light
ming stroke; it makes free trade VS..
protection the overshadowing issue; it
dwarfs and dismisses all other questions
it clears away all cowardly evasions
and Juggling subterfuges; it ends all
pitiful personal bespattering, and it
summons the American people to de-
eide the supreme question whether the
grand protective system which has
built up our splendid Industries shall
be overthrown or not.-Philadel l,hia
Press.
